It's worse than that.
Each time an interesting post (say a blog post on fractal dimensionality in the stock market) gets posted
ALL of that persons previous work gets posted as well.
So you have a head post, followed by 5 other follow up
articles which just kills Signal to Noise ratio.
- fnid 17y agoDamn, that's a good post. I missed it. COuld you find the link to that fractal post?
- jacquesm 17y agothat one ? http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=417463 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=417463 It's quite a bit older than your account so I doubt you 'missed' it.
- jwecker 17y agoActually, the article being older than his account would virtually guarantee that he missed it. He was probably disingenuous when he said that it was a good post, though.
- jacquesm 17y agoI was being disingenuous as well when I decided to find a relevant link being sure that such a combination of elements must exist if the original poster referred to it... Do not attribute to misunderstanding what can be attributed to malice ;)
- fnid 17y agoI was serious. I have a deep interest in the stock market and fractals both, so an article that brings them together ... well, it's gravy!
- jacquesm 17y agohehe, funny :) So, there you go then. There is a link at the bottom to http://www.webmynd.com/html/hackernews.html http://www.webmynd.com/html/hackernews.html In case you ever want to find a particular HN posting again.
- Tichy 17y agoThat should just be growing pains, though. Once HN has processed all people with something worthwhile to say, there will be no more previous articles to post - they'll all have been posted before. Things should then normalize...
- unalone 17y agoThat will never happen. (I couldn't tell if you were being sarcastic or not.)
